Atlanta Hawks vs Chicago Bulls prediction
Lots of injuries on both sides here, so you should check who is in and who is out before locking anything in. With that said, the Bulls are playing their best ball of the season and should have the edge at home, where 9 of their 13 wins have come. The Atlanta Hawks can’t string wins together, they don’t defend, and they’re 7-22 ATS on the season. The Hawk’s 24 percent cover percentage is head and shoulders the worst in the league. Give me the Bulls and the small chalk at home.
